Clint Dempsey scored a dramatic stoppage-time equalizer on Sunday to lift Tottenham Hotspur to a 1-1 draw with English Premier League leader Manchester United.

The 93rd-minute goal was Dempsey’s fourth in his past four games and seventh of the season.

On Sunday at White Hart Lane, United was under considerable pressure as it attempted to defend a one-goal lead secured by Robin van Persie’s first-half header. Dempsey was denied from point blank range by goalkeeper David De Gea in the 52nd minute and continued to be a threatening presence in the United penalty area before finally breaking through in the closing seconds.

A cross from Tottenham substitute Benoit Assou-Ekotto was punched by De Gea but fell to Spurs midfielder Aaron Lennon at the right corner of the six-yard box. He cut a low pass back to the left and Dempsey needed only one touch to beat the helpless De Gea inside the left post.

Dempsey has been on a roll since New Year’s. The U.S. national team star scored in a 3-1 EPL win over Reading on Jan. 1 and then found the net twice in a 3-0 FA Cup triumph over Coventry City four days later. He was a substitute in Spurs’ scoreless draw with Queen’s Park Rangers on the 12th but was back in the starting lineup on Sunday.

Tottenham is on a roll as well, unbeaten in its past eight matches and in fourth place in the EPL at 12-6-5. Dempsey and Co. will be back in action on Jan. 27 when they visit second-tier Leeds United in an FA Cup round-of-32 game.
